Time and tide waits for no man! Often people say time will pass by faster if you are enjoying yourself or having a good time. So, am I having a fun time here? Frankly speaking, I doubt so. Nevertheless, I will find something to do which makes my time pass by faster. I guess that's why my time still passes fairly quickly.
When I was in University, I always felt I don't have much time on hand. I would need to constantly study or do my assignments and projects. In addition to that I also wanted to watch anime, play my guitar, go out with friends etc etc! The list just never ends...
Now in Doha, I have soooo much time that I don't really know how to spend it initially! Such irony.. And so, I began to think what can I do...? Sleep? Watch tv? Or just stare at the laptop screen? I guess maybe not... I looked back at my life and I found that I get envious of talented or knowledgeable people very easily. I get envious but I tend to not do anything afterwards and then later on I wonder why can't I be like them too? Usually I will frown a bit, probably get slightly depressed and then forget and move on...
Ok, so what should I do about this? Well, since I got so much time and so little friends to hang out with here, why not I improve certain aspects of myself? Especially in the things I love to do! That's right... First of all, my guitar playing skills. I would love to be able to play more songs, like the songs I really love to sing!
So, I went to Youtube to get lots of tutorials. I was amazed at just how powerful Youtube can be! Usually people would go on Youtube to watch MTVs, anime, drama or just for entertainment but it is actually so much more powerful that I think I can even learn anything in this world from Youtube. Provided I know how to filter the good from the bad ones of course.
Now, I'm just waiting for my guitar to arrive soon and then I can start to play the songs I always wanted to!

A new chapter
More than two and a half years I've stopped writing here... To imagine time passes by with just the blink of an eye, I guess isn't a very difficult task to the majority of us. So, why start to write again now? That's a very good question indeed.
Throughout my childhood life, I have been living in my own world. I didn't really mix much with friends nor have I talked to a lot of people regarding how they think and such. However, as I went to college, I felt more comfortable with people around me. As I got to know more people, naturally I would talk to more people and explore avenues I wouldn't usually do.
Soon, one and a half year of pre-university was done with and there I was with my passport and air ticket ready to fly to New Zealand for my four years of university studies. Auckland, New Zealand, a place where a lot of people say is a super boring place *no offense*, I actually think otherwise. I mean yeah, there is not much to do there but everything was settled as I had more and more friends to hang out with or even piles and piles of assignments to keep me busy.
University was the time when it really got me thinking about my future and every step which I take. In addition to that, the thoughts of some of my friends or even thoughts of influential strangers on the net got me thinking of how I should live my life and where should I steer my life towards? I haven't got my answer to be honest but I am optimistic about the search for the answer.
Now, one and a half month into working life, I have so much time on hand that I really need to find something to do! What better to do than to find that answer I always wanted to seek? I really hope that by penning down what I see and learn, I am able to join the dots and reach my ultimate goal soon before I reach 30! Lol...
